This is a 0.080-inch diameter, round trimmer line sold in a 5-pound bulk spool (2,050 feet total). It’s designed for commercial or heavy-duty trimming on string trimmers that accept 0.080-inch line.
Fitment & Compatibility
Before buying, check your trimmer’s manual or current line size. This 0.080-inch line is thicker than standard residential sizes (often 0.065 or 0.095 inches). It fits most gas and electric trimmers that can handle 0.080-inch line, but verify your trimmer head’s maximum line diameter—many homeowner models max out at 0.065 or 0.080 inches. If your head is rated for 0.095-inch, this will work but may be less effective. This is aftermarket line, not OEM, so it works in any brand (Stihl, Echo, Husqvarna, Ryobi, etc.) as long as diameter matches.
Key Things to Know
- Quality concerns: The 2.5/5 rating (5 reviews) suggests inconsistent performance. Some users report it breaks easily or wears quickly compared to name-brand 0.080-inch line.
- Installation: Round line is easy to load into most trimmer heads—no special techniques needed, but you’ll need to cut lengths from the bulk spool yourself.
- Common gotchas: At 2,050 feet, this is a huge spool. Unless you trim commercially or have multiple trimmers, you’ll likely never use it all. The line may also be stiff in cold weather, leading to more breakage.
- Value vs. cost: $35.99 for 5 pounds is cheap per foot, but if the line snaps frequently, you’ll waste time reloading, negating the savings.
Should You Buy It
Skip this unless you’re a commercial operator who goes through line very quickly and wants to test a budget bulk option. For most homeowners, a smaller spool of name-brand 0.080-inch line (like Oregon or Echo) at a similar per-foot cost will be more reliable and less hassle. The low rating and bulk size make it a poor choice for occasional use.
